  • Resumen

  • Our show is about dreamers who have realized their dreams and who became winners as they made a difference for the better in the lives of those they touched.brbr For us, a “winner” is anyone who did so without giving up – and without cheating or acting unethically. Anyone, therefore, can be a “winner.” You don’t have to finish first or run a major company. You don’t need wealth or fame or a collection of toys. What you do need is to have realized your dreams and to have made a difference for the better in the lives of those you touch.brbr. On our show, we’ll have conversations with winners about what helped them become winners – and who helped them get there. We’ll also talk about other inspirational winners like Nelson Mandela. In doing so, we hope their insights will help you to realize your own dreams.

  • That Corporate Responsibility Thing: Challenging the Executive Mind

    That Corporate Responsibility Thing: Challenging the Executive Mind
    Feb 2 2015
    Implementing a corporate responsibility program requires executives to embrace fundamental ethical concepts and to lead by example. They have to walk-the-walk as they talk-the-talk. Similarly, those they lead just buy into the goals and importance of the program. In a perfect world scenario, the business schools would prepare its students to embrace these types of programs and to help implement it both with ethical gusto and with the enthusiasm that comes with knowing they are doing the right thing. Professor Diane Swanson chairs the Business Ethics Education Initiative at Kansas State. Her latest book is entitled: Embedding CSR into Corporate Culture: Challenging the Executive Mind.
